As expected after its triumph over Samsung in court for patent infringement, Apple has laid out which of Samsung’s devices it wants banned. Apple is requesting that the sale of eight devices cease in the U-S. The list includes four Galaxy S 2s, two Galaxy Ss, the Droid Charge and the Galaxy Prevail. Lucky for Samsung, a lot of these devices are no longer for sale – but that doesn’t mean it won’t fight tooth and nail to keep Apple from forcing any of its devices off the shelves. An injunction hearing is scheduled for September 20. Samsung is expected to appeal the verdict, but no matter who comes out triumphant in the end, the case has extraordinary implications when it comes to the future of mobile devices. Even if the verdict is reversed, the case could take years to be over for good and in the meantime, every manufacturer will have to watch its back.
